Perceived Job Characteristics and Job Satisfaction: An Examination of Reciprocal Causation.

James, Lawrence R.; Jones, Allan P.

Personnel Psychology, v33 n1 p97-130 Spr 1980

While the job perception-job satisfaction relationship appeared to be reciprocal, it did not appear to be symmetric. (Author)
